Безкоштовного генератора не існує! Щоб була якість треба мати обов'язково
підписку. Тоді лише буде якість. Ну і тоді, не всі будуть прийматися. Так
як кожного дня завантажується 1000000 робіт. Ато і більше...

There is no free generator! To have quality, you must have a subscription.
Only then will there be quality. And even then, not everyone will be
accepted. Since 1,000,000 works are uploaded every day. And maybe more...

Also on paid subscriptions, you have quality issues. The good here may be that the output image is at a higher resoltion and may be, you are able to use the output commercially. 

 

Free generators often are free only for non-commercial applications. Generative AI needs CPU power, and that costs.

What most newcomers don't understand is that AI is not a replacement for talent.  In fact, it requires even more talent to elevate machine generated content into commercially successful artwork. 

 

Start by closely examining every quadrant of your AI generated output for accuracy & unwanted artifacts. Remove or fix all defects if you can, otherwise discard the image and start over. 

 

Select 2 or 3 of your best quality AI images to upscale.  But don't overdo it.  Too much upscaling amplifies all pixels, including the defective ones. Several attempts at different settings may be required until you get acceptable results. Then closely examine artwork again and make additional corrections as needed.

 

Finally, compare your best AI artwork with current Stock inventory.

To get accepted, yours should be 1) something Stock needs and 2) as good or better than what they're currently selling.

This is one of your images viewed at 100%. The upscale is too large and results in degrading the quality of the asset.

I would recommend you search for some tutorials on YouTube on how to prepare and submit images to Adobe Stock (or to any stock site). Also, look for tutorials that explain resolution, resizing images, and upscaling.

Garbled and meaningless text.

It's more than just the text. The hand is unrealistic. And the fine lines are all over the place and poorly rendered. And, again, the section below is at 100%, where all details become muddled. At 300 ppi, this image is 44 inches on the longest side. You should be in the vicinity of 14 to 20 inches at 300 ppi and use a high-quality upscaler.
